Ondawa-Cambridge Chapter
National Society
Daughters of the American Revolution
Cambridge, New York
“Ondawa-Cambridge
Chapter was formed on November 8, 1894, the 12th in New York State and 125th in the
nation, when 12 women met at the home of Minerva Buck McKie. In 1895 the
chapter sent its first delegate to Continental Congress. Lucinda Fowler
Fish, a “real daughter” whose father was a minute man, was a member
of the chapter as was Mary Robertson Moses (“Grandma Moses”) who
memorialized our battlefields and countryside in her famous artwork.
Our
members represent a wide area, including parts of Washington
and Rensselaer Counties
and Bennington, Vermont. Many are active volunteers in
their communities. The chapter works closely with the Cambridge
Historical Society and Museum the Bennington
Battlefield Visitors
Center in Walloomsac, New York.
We meet the first Friday of the month at 1 p.m., March through June and
September through December. Each July, we enjoy a chapter outing to local
points of interest.”
